Northern Belle Full steam ahead aboard the


Imagine relaxing with a glass of chilled champagne as you gaze out at the scenic splendour of the Kent countryside from Britain’s finest luxury vintage steam train.


Heart of Kent Hospice is offering a magical, lunch-time dining experience on board the magnificent Northern Belle, a unique journey that will invoke the romance, glamour and style of a golden age of travel.


The sumptuous interiors of the individually designed carriages recall the original Belle and Pullman trains of the 1920s and ‘30s, with fabrics and veneered marquetry inspired by the castles and stately homes after which the carriages are named - Alnwick, Belvoir, Chatsworth, Warwick, Glamis, Harlech and Duart. The intricate details of the specially commissioned upholstery, mosaic floors and fine furnishings combine to create an atmosphere of country house style and elegance.


On the day of your journey, liveried stewards will welcome you aboard to


tables set with crisp white tablecloths, shining silverware and glittering crystal. Once seated, you’ll be served a glass of chilled champagne and canapés, followed by an exquisite, four course lunch including a great British cheeseboard, biscuits and chutneys, and rounded off with coffee and petit fours. Each course is prepared from the finest, locally-sourced and seasonal ingredients, skilfully woven into classic and innovative dishes, and served with a carefully selected fine wine.


As you savour the world class cuisine of the Northern Belle, a majestic Black class 5 steam special locomotive will transport you to a bygone era as you meander your way on a circular tour of the rolling hills and ancient woodlands of Kent.


This is the very first time the Northern Belle will have visited Kent, having been chartered exclusively by Heart of Kent Hospice for this unique event. The journey begins on Saturday 11 May 2019, departing from Maidstone East at 12.30pm and returning at around 5pm.


Dress code is smart day wear and tickets are priced at £349 per person and include a glass of champagne, canapés, a four-course lunch and a bottle of wine per couple. All profits from this event will support the vital work of Heart of Kent Hospice.
